Here's my third nomination from the history of Billboard's chart for the gentler side of popular music. How gentle? Well in this year an actual NUN reached number one! Feedback as ever will be most gratefully received and swiftly acted upon...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:32, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Source review: Passed

  • Reliable enough for the information being cited
  • Consistent date formatting
  • Consistent and proper reference formatting
  • Appropriate wikilinks where applicable
  • Spot checks on 12 sources match what they are being cited for

I got nothing except a suggestion to consider adding the {{Use mdy dates|May 2024}} template to the top of the article under the short description in case there's any references changed in the future and the person isn't as careful about date formatting as you are.

Dank[edit]

  • Well, I have to complain about something. "by Belgian vocalist the Singing Nun, who" doesn't work for me; how about this? "by the Singing Nun, a Belgian vocalist who". - Dank (push to talk) 16:23, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Standard disclaimer: I don't know what I'm doing, and I mostly AGF on sourcing.
  • Checking the FLC criteria:
  • 1. Prose: see above. I checked sorting on all sortable nonnumeric columns and sampled the links in the table.
  • 2. The lead meets WP:LEAD and defines the inclusion criteria.
  • 3a. The list has comprehensive items and annotations.
  • 3b. The sources appear to be reliable, and the UPSD tool isn't indicating any significant problems (but this isn't a source review). All relevant retrieval dates are present.
  • 3c. The list meets requirements as a stand-alone list, it isn't a content fork, and it doesn't largely duplicate another article (that I can find).
  • 4. It is navigable.
  • 5. It meets style requirements. At a glance, the images seem fine.
  • 6. It is stable.
  • Close enough for a support. Well done. - Dank (push to talk) 16:41, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Dank: - thanks for your review, I have tweaked the bit about the Singing Nun -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 17:48, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • Okay, I just saw the PD notice in the image ... now I have no problem with it. - Dank (push to talk) 17:49, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pseud 14[edit]

  • with the only one of their songs ever to appear on the listing. -- I think "the" here should be dropped.
    • Not sure which "the" you mean, but removing either would make the sentence grammatically incorrect -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:33, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • @ChrisTheDude: My bad should have been specific. I meant to say if it should state as with only one of their songs ever to appear on the listing or some tweaking like with only one of their songs appearing on the listing. Hopefully the makes sense. Pseud 14 (talk) 15:47, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Pseud 14: Neither of those would work, as that wording would indicate that they had several songs on the listing but only one got to number one, which is not the point being made. The point being made is that the song in question was literally the only one they ever had on the chart. The wording has to stay as it is, otherwise the sentence becomes incorrect...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:52, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The End of the World" should sort with "E"
  • That's all from me. Great work as usual. Pseud 14 (talk) 15:27, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Pseud 14 (talk) 15:59, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Image review: Passed

  • The Peter, Paul and Mary image uses px size, switch to "upright"
  • Images have alt text.
  • Images are appropriately tagged and licensed as PD.
  • Images have succinct captions and relevant in the article. Pseud 14 (talk) 15:27, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)[edit]

Somehow missing the table caption. --PresN 20:29, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • @PresN: - hard to believe that after all this time I can still forget that!  :-P Added now -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:33, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
